What nonsense does that mean? They are running foul of what to do so they are just cooking up stuff, and you know the GQP is a full blown conspiracy party so they ask useless questions which have already been taken care of, banking on the illiteracy of their followers not to know what's up with their antics. Nothing bombshell will come out of this nonsense, but what i know will come out will be arrests and resignations from that arizona GQP and i won't be surprised the DOJ takes arizona and the sham company overseeing the recount to court after all this mess.

Time will tell. Everyone’s entitled to their opinion. We wait.

Transparency breeze blowing behind the illegal President XiBiden.

Anyone know where I can get a Lexus IS 350? - Please note, I did not say IS 250 o o. Very clean one o - urgently needed.

Lmao. People make mistakes and move on.

budaatum:
Really? You mean like Americans were not swayed by 400,000 people dying from coronavirus? I believe you. That is why your man trump is the current President of the United States of America.

My chill pill works till the next Texas election.

I know we can't agree that Xibiden rigged his way into the White House. But good luck with trying to change Texas to blue.

budaatum:
Are you serious? Average Texan is happy their house is flooded? That the content of their freezer is all spoilt? That their electric bill is through the roof? That some died? Are you sure you are not the one who is happy because others are suffering?


In Qanon? The same place you read that "the average Texans is even happy"?

Ono, please accept by apology for bothering you.

Bwahahaha.. . . . ."Texans" was misspelt -

Anyway, you can read up stuff in the link shared. You need to take a chill pill and realise that this whole brouhaha about Texas is largely political. But Texans are not swayed by these things.

Dapcity247:
With California environmental and climate activism they couldn't prevent wildfire crisis, you're extremely hypocritical , don't go and focus on Cuomo crisis , keep on applying double standards
Rubbish

That's how they operate. Raising coins for places where they believe they can do power grab. Selfish hypocrites.

buda,
Read up.

budaatum:
Still, you would need to convince me (with references pleade) that the Keystone XL project could have been completed before this current debacle occured if Biden had not stopped it.

Are you aware that this is not the first time Texas has had this problem?

You guys are the ones making a big deal of these things about Texas. The average Texan is even happy to see snow, so they can go skating in Austin, Houston and elsewhere. A state that has experienced worst natural disasters in its history and bounced back is one that dimwits AOC and O Rourke are raising coins to help the "needy"? I laugh out loud in Chinese.


The Keystone XL project from what I read in the news was nearing completion as at the time Xibiden rigged his way in, backed by dishonest demonRats and a handful of RINOs. The thing with pipeline projects is that it's either you complete it and the pipeline is available or its not done. There is no go between.

https://www.nrdc.org/stories/what-keystone-pipeline -that should help. Never mind all the thrash about the environment.

budaatum:
Yes, ono, I blame Texas. If they had believed in climate change they'd have built in sufficient redundancy to cope with the unexpected regardless of cost because not building it in costs more in lives lost as we are now finding out.

We (can't recall the moniker again) have agreed this whole Texas this, Texas that, is just all about looking and feeling good to score cheap political scores with Texans. Look, Texas is RED, and will be RED forever. LOL.

The Energy business is fraught with uncertainties and highly capital intensive. Government coming in to help most times takes the heat off poor investors and operators. The hydrocarbon pools in the deep GOM (where we have substantial proven reserves) is entirely owned by the US government. Investment in development activities in that area has been stopped by Quid pro Joe. That Keystone XL project, if completed, would have gone a long way to assuage the current deficit in energy availability across the country - not just Texas alone. The dumb, chinese arse licking Quid Pro Joe killed it.

Renewables can't go it all alone. We still need energy from other sources. All the tree-hugging energy conservationists can go and hug cold trees now - with no clothes on, if they truly "love" the environment. Awon were.

edi287:
You are contradicting yourself now. You guys have claimed this situation proves that renewable energy can't work and we're debunking it by showing windmills does work in places colder than it was in Texas.
Going by your logic - how long has Texas been using renewable energy and how long has there been a power outage like this as a result of power failure of plants fueled by renewable energy?

You probably haven’t been following my entries. Please quote where I ever said renewables are useless.

edi287:
Excuses. There are places where wind and solar energy work just fine in winter weather's.
No amount of spinning will change the fact at hand.

And that’s another key point. “Places” point A may have a very high wind power potential than point B. So, you don’t expect the two points to churn out the same power generation rates.

The Ercot story up there doesn’t hold water. Texas is generally not so pummeled with snow like we are experiencing now in winter in recent years. Will you blame anyone for not investing in making their plants ready for “winter in Texas”? Have you any idea what it will takes to do that - capital wise, in the face of dwindling fortunes in the business ?

edi287:
No you guys are being disingenuous in this debate. The fact of the matter is Texas simply don't have wind turbines that could handle a situation like this. Simple. It's not difficult to admit. But trying to use this as an excuse to bash renewable energy is hilarious. Go ask Alaska how their turbines work during the winter


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bERB9LUSfyk

Just so we are clear, no one is bashing renewables. And after watching that video, it’s clear we are back to what I said earlier, we need a mix of these energy sources. I hope you watched the video very well.

edi287:
Did it explain how other places that use wind turbines and solar panels barely shut down during winter or nah?
Did it also explain how many power plants ran by coal were also affected??
Oh and did you know a winter storm happened back in 2011 and guess what bulk of power plants were affected?? That's right - coal.
AOC is doing what lame frauds like Cruz wouldn't do for any other state much less his own

Alright. Tell me about these other places - starting with names. So, coal, natural gas, heavy oil and light oil, although sources of power generation, they all have their merits and demerits. And as we all have now seen, even renewables (wind and solar) and nuclear also have theirs too. This takes me back to my earlier submission on the subject:

The only way out is a mixture of these power sources for mankind's use. Any attempt to rely solely on one and downplay the rest comes with its catastrophic consequences.

I expected dim witted and brain dead Xibiden to know this by now and do what's right, but I guess I expected too much from him, since he rigged his way into the White House. He's got other pressing needs to attend to, while undoing what Trump had put on the ground to make life better for Americans.

You lack what it takes to comprehend the subject - when you’re done reading the rudiments on refining, come back and share learnings. Then, we can have a meaningful conversation.

For now, know that reservoir engineers are the masters of the subject. They were trained for it, know the stuff right from the source rocks, the compositions of the crudes - whether heavy, light or gaseous. They are the masters of resource classes. They are the oracles of the oil and gas industries - and everyone else that taps into the industry goes to them for help and direction.

salford1:
Dumbass. So have you worked in an heavy crude facility?
I highly doubt that. Don't talk Shye you no zilch about.

You’re the dumb and deaf here. Don’t ever delve into territory you know nothing about. That’s a warning. And I’ll leave you hanging in there.

salford1:
I worked in the oil and gas industry before moving into Power. Dumbass.

And I have worked as a hydrocarbon reservoir engineer.

Spin something new, you tool!

salford1:
What has Alberta's tar sands oil got to do with natural gas for cooking and heating homes?
It's either you are dumb or ignorant. I think it's the latter.

You should lookup the meaning of fossil fuels before exposing your level of ignorance on the subject.

Great feedback Dapcity.

Let’s wait for Reed and his horde of ignoramuses here to spin something new.

salford1:
Enabled by the Texas Government. Straight up price gouging in the middle of a crisis.

Isn't he also a friend to Trump? I remembered he donated to Trump maybe once or twice

Same lack of compassion, humanity, ethics or patriotism displayed by the likes of Cruz, Trump, e.t.c.

You guys are some wonders to behold.

Imagine if that nice Keystone pipeline construction wasn’t halted by brain dead Xibiden. Imagine how much gas prices would be by now and peoples sufferings greatly reduced. Imagine how much cheap energy would be available to Americans to heat their homes if all the investments in oil were not allowed to dry up.

Well, why don’t we just depend on environmentally friendly renewable energy for help this time around ?

Crazy people.

SMH.
Now I see why people ignore you here.
Trying to select and deflect from the issue under discourse.

I won't bother engaging you anymore, you comment incoherently on different paragraphs.

Sorry if it appears like that (deflecting and shifting things around). I did my best to answer you - may not be good enough, but we agree to disagree sometimes.

Thanks for not reducing stuff to personal insults like some of your other leftists people here suffering dementia. Well done.

Livelystone01:
Come on,why are you acting as if politics is not a game? You sound funny sometimes.
You know that every party takes advantage of the laxity and errors of the other. don't you?
But in the case of the GOP, they don't care about their supporters, they lie to them openly and deflect blames. The so called supporters in turn start echoing these lies, looking for enemies they never have.
SMH.

There is no difference between the GOP and the APC leaders in Nigeria.

Give the GOP the mantle of leadership in all States as governors, senators, Congress members, etc and I will predict a country that will start moving backwards to 1920.

They have perfectly two good legs but they only use it them walk backwards, the GOP.
F. D. Roosevelt.(paraphrased).

So, we agree on the cheap political gain angle from AOC. Thank you.

I don't like discussing Nigeria. I am tired of doing that.

Well, bless the good Lord we've seen some good leaders from the GOP in the past. Reagan is a popular one. Dwight (Ike) led the world against Nazis and won. . . . .laid the foundation for some excellent leadership.

The GOP legs have always been perfect. And now, they're getting ready to sweep the rigger in chief in the White House (Xibiden, Quid Pro Joe) out, soon.

I'll let you lefties in on something.

Texas cannot, will not, will never, ever go BLUE

salford1:
A man with a good heart.

Bwahaha.... . . . . . .I wonder who will feel the heat if he doesn't do anything. Chinese arse-licking, rigger.

The whole Land is now even turning into a gigantic sanctuary country, through mass "racial equity" amnesty and immigration programs, as MAGA turns to MACA.
Make America California Again!

LoL. ... leftists are truly a wonder to behold.

edi287:
You're being ridiculous. Ted Cruz tweeted that during a massive heatwave.
Even he admits he was a hypocritical mongrel.

I’m referring to his 2020 California power tweet. We know he’s apologised for his Cancun trip - even though it’s not within his powers to do much as a Senator. Not sure why AOC and her minions are after the guy.. .if not for cheap political gains.

edi287:
Akuko. I am here for the double standards. I can remember how much some of you conservatives mocked California during the wildfires. So all this talk is just that - talk.
I only sympathize with those who show sympathy.

I think it will be nice to separate things that are within government control from those that are not.

Wildfires in California and now freezing cold in Texas are strictly speaking, not within government control - to a very large extent. Same with tornadoes and hurricanes. If we agree on that, then, clear.

Now, lets go back to what smart Ted Cruz said in one the tweets you shared.

"California is now unable to perform basic functions of civilization, like having reliable electricity" - now notice that he said this right in the thick of the summer - Aug 2020, when all that's needed to provide comfort for everyone is doable and available, unlike extreme cold, tornadoes, and hurricanes.

If California governor Newsom could not do that at the time, should someone not call him to order like Cruz did at the time? Isn't it glaring to all that the man - Newsom, was mismanaging the fortunes of the state, probably using it for irrelevant and selfish things like feeding and taking care of thousands of illegal aliens in Sanctuary cities, so they can vote for him during the elections?

I await your response.

edi287, all na cheap political score point that bear no semblance on the reality of what's playing out on the ground - all over the country. You are too smart to fall for stuff like this. Quit already!


Based on the forecasts, AOC better spend all that "stolen" money to take care of herself first (in freezing New York), before heading to Texas - in the cold. Oponu oloshi.

And another one:

http://abcnewsradioonline.com/national-news/winter-storm-kills-three-in-south-as-dangerous-cold-blast-mo.html

It's a nation-wide thing. Don't bring politics into it.

salford1:
Tell me the evil one between the guy that flew to Cancun to enjoy the sunshine despite the suffering in his state or the outsider providing leadership all the way from New York.

Yen yen yen. . . . . .

You will soon join him

Yeah bro. You know that guy called "PrideofChuky" is a loathsome, crazy batshit.

salford1:
And who said it wasn't country some mostly republican state wide issue?

I hope you read the stuff from BBC. Many demonRats only read what fits their narrative. Evil people.
